Good

They will see the danger, instead of avoiding it, they will say "God will get us there safely".

Go meet your God now.

Ha! What a tragedy caused by negligence.

The couple would blame themselves for a loooooooong time!

I hope this doesn't affect the marriage negatively.

May God console the whole community, amen.

I don't know why life doesn't have meaning to us in Nigeria. Why overloading a boat? If you find out now, they don't wear lifejacket on that journey.

All passenger on liner water transportation should be wearing lifejacket. That's the standard, unless it's cruise vessel where each passenger has their lifejacket in their "hotel" rooms (cabins).

“Our village people went to a wedding ceremony in another village called Gboti and the boat carried about 270 people, and almost 110 people were lost.”

270 actually.

The boat hit a tree while moving? That part no too clear. Was the tree in the middle of the river or the boat was close to the shore? RIP to the deceased. The newlyweds and their families will live with this guilt for a very long time sad

You've never heard of rivers or mangrove swamps that have huge trees growing from them?

If you don't fear anything, fear God and fear water if you no sabi swim.


Even if one can swim. Chances of getting drown is also high, if rescue teams don't show up on time.

It's because you didn't read it well. ...."waves of water took control of the boat..." consequently, the sailors would lose control leading to the boat hitting the tree. DO YOU UNDERSTAND?

Overloading of boats caused most accident in this side of the world.
Government should wake up to their responsibility and prevent such.

There are these hustlers who float fallen trees. Sometimes, the floating trees sink and in most cases cause accidents. cool

This is sad but preventable tragedy.

Most times we regard it as an act of God & life goes on. But then, there are people whose negligence & incompetence caused such tragedy, who should face criminal prosecution.

Thank God you are not blaming Tinubu like some mooks would have done.
